I would think lino would be slippery, especially when wet.

Oh! I agree.

I knew you had good taste. Besides, a little glue and some sand and the
slipperiness is history!

Looks like vinyl to me.
No fish or barnacle patterns available?

You don't know the difference between pure, 100% linoleum and friggin'
*vinyl*? You'll never be a renowned pontoon boat deck designer.

That's beautiful!

I especially like the 'fake moldy' look towards the middle. You couldn't
have done better!

Well, I look at it like this John.

Popel go out and pay 100+ bucks for a pair of worn out, faided, dirty
looking Jeans with raggedy holes in the knees, so I figured this might
be the ticket. it would give the pontoon floor that broken in "homey"
look. Of course I would need to ask permission, but I think I might
ask some people at the local trailer park what their kitchen floors
have. That gives more options, y'know.

Then you could use some old kitchen furniture, but be sure to bolt
down the chair you'll be using to drive the boat!

Now you're talking'!

Trailer parks are the way to go. You might try driving around the
neighborhood the evening before trash day also. That's how I picked up the
carpet for my garage. What do you think?

That's appropriate for a great bike or two!
